Europe and Israel Mobile Applications for Melanoma Detection Market: Drivers
Increasing prevalence of melanoma is expected to propel growth of the Europe and Israel mobile applications for melanoma detection market over the forecast period. For instance, according to Globocan 2018, there were 144,000 new cases / year in Europe and the disease resulted in 27,000 deaths / year in the region.
Moreover, increasing adoption of smartphones is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, according to The Office of Communications, the U.K. government-approved regulatory and competition authority for the broadcasting, telecommunications and postal industries, seventy-two per cent of adults say their smartphone is their most important device for accessing the internet, 71% say they never turn off their phone, and 78% say they could not live without it (2018 Data).
Europe and Israel Mobile Applications for Melanoma Detection Market: Opportunities
Increasing penetration of internet is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for players in the Europe and Israel mobile applications for melanoma detection market. For instance, according to The Office of Communications, the U.K. government-approved regulatory and competition authority for the broadcasting, telecommunications and postal industries, the proportion of people accessing the internet on their mobile increased from 20% in 2008 to 72% in 2018. The average amount of time spent online on a smartphone is 2 hours 28 minutes a day. This rises to 3 hours 14 minutes among 18-24s.
Moreover, R&D in skin cancer application is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, in September 2019, researchers at Erasmus University Medical Center, Netherlands, reported that SkinVision—the first CE-marked skin cancer application based on extensive clinical trials—has a sensitivity of 95.1% in detecting the most common forms of skin cancer.
Europe and Israel Mobile Applications for Melanoma Detection Market: Restraints
Concerns regarding accuracy of mobile applications for melanoma detection is expected to hinder growth of the Europe and Israel mobile applications for melanoma detection market. For instance, in February 2020, researchers from University of Birmingham and University of Warwick, U.K., reported that current algorithm based smartphone apps cannot be relied on to detect all cases of melanoma or other skin cancers.
Moreover, regulations related to mobile applications for melanoma detection have become more stringent and the concerned application vendors/developers have to undergo costly regulatory procedures. Such scenario is also expected to limit the market growth.
